Never seen 4/5 fellas work so hard. Didn't realise how much stuff we had but it was all packed on the 2 vans, delivered, unloaded with everything in tact and all instructions/requests followed to the letter. Polite and helpful, the move was far less stressful than we imagined.

We moved on what must have been the worst day for rain in a long time in the Ribble Valley. Undeterred, the guys turned up on time, worked very hard and at speed, and the boss pitched in too, leading by example. I'd wholeheartedly recommend this firm. Many thanks, Ben and Team!

Braithwaite's moved my father from Cleveleys to Sunderland. They arrived promptly and took great care over packing and unpacking. At all times they were courteous and worked non-stop to load and unload the van. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to prospective movers.

If you are planning a move in this area and need help, Don't look any further! These guys are the best! Ben and Colin worked so hard on the day of removing on the hottest day of the year. I recommend them and would use this company again. Beware of so called man and van for 2,50 an hour its just a scam!

We used Braithwaites for a house move from Warton to Kirkham. They arrived at 8am and loaded the vans very professionally done. We paid a set fee which was a lot cheaper than other quotes we had received. The team of three all worked very hard all day, they were all very polite and nothing was too much trouble for them, I would recommend this firm 100% excellent value and very professional. We will definitely use them again.

Absolutely no problem to recommend Braithwaite's and the team that helped move my 90 mother from Knott-end-on-sea to Oxfordshire. They carefully and politely packed a lifetime's collected possessions in to their provided boxes on one day. And arrived on time in Oxfordshire the following day with the same courteous and proficient offloading into her new home. The whole process of estimating, booking, finalising arrangements and moving was efficient, helpful, open and communicative.

My wife and I used this company to move from Knott End to Blackpool. We booked them from 8am and they turned up exactly as promised. From the word go they were a most professional company and Jay and Ben who moved us were extremely honest and caring towards us and our property. I booked them by the hour and they billed us accordingly with no problems at all. I would highly recommend this company and certainly wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Thank you, most appreciated.
